474,【On the cliff】
The mountains and waters on the cliff are beautiful, and under the noon sunshine, the light and darkness are so beautiful. If you have a wonderful painting hand that can fill this scene on paper and frame it well, it will definitely be a masterpiece passed down from generation to generation.
After a moment of stunned silence, Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling had the intention to carefully check the scenery on the cliff.
The first thing that came into the eyes of the two was a hall in front of them. Although there were few carvings and paintings, they had a magnificent shape and were very harmonious with the surrounding environment, as if they had grown from there. This is the tallest building on the cliff, which attracted the attention. They looked carefully and recognized the three words "No Named Hall" on the plaque in front of the hall, and then they retracted their gaze and looked around.
There is a strange small shed next to the stone ring. It seems to have been cleaned up inside, so clean that I don’t know what it is for. There is also an exquisite pavilion not far away, with a small wooden table and a few stools in the middle. Many tea trees grow by the cliff, which are a bit like ordinary shrubs because the picking season has passed.
There is also a large stone, flat and right by the cliff. There are several gourd vines growing behind the stone, and some small gourds fall on it. Not far from the stone are a few pine trees, with a large bird's nest on it, but there seems to be no birds inside. I don't know what kind of bird's nest belongs to.
What surprised the two of them was that there was a small fishing boat standing by the cliff, leaning against a bamboo tray next to it. Liu Yuande was knowledgeable and recognized that this was not the common fishing boat shape in the Central Plains. He didn't know how the boat ran up the mountain, so he thought he would have nothing to do with Mr. Fang.
The source of the waterfall was a wide stream flowing out of the cliff.
The stream flows out from a small pond. The lotus leaves are stacked in the pond, and the white and pink lotus flowers stretch high from above and bloom in the direction of the sky. There are also some buds that have not yet been sprouted, with roots pointing straight to the sky like spears. There is also a passage made of wooden boards that pass through the pond, and divide the pond into two left and right pieces.
There are excavation marks next to the pond, and it seems that they are preparing to expand the area.
Further forward, on the square stone base in front of the hall, there is a four-legged square tripod, which looks quite majestic. Between the hall and the square tripod is a ginkgo tree with lush branches and leaves, underneath it is a stone table made of large stones. There seems to be something on the stone table, and there are several stone benches next to it.
On both sides are fields with various crops, including medicinal fields, grain fields, vegetable fields, flower fields, and a chicken house. There are many chickens in the shed. Because of his little knowledge of medical skills, Liu Yuande could even recognize several precious medicinal materials from the medicine fields, and those that were surrounded by them alone felt more important, and he didn't even recognize them.
Looking further away, there are two rows of houses of large size, with many stove-like buildings in the middle, and smoke is still coming out. I don’t know what I am doing.
On the right side of Xianqi Cliff is a valley, with streams flowing down on it and pouring into the pond full of lotus flowers. The stream is not long upward, and it seems that there is a spring halfway up the mountain.
The stream flows from the valley to the turning point on the cliff, and there is a large stone with sharp pen tips on it, and the words "Huanhua Creek" are engraved. I think it is wonderful.
On the left side of the open space on the cliff is a dense jungle. I don’t know how far it has been, nor how wide the area on the cliff is. There are short fences on the edge of the forest, and there are monkeys jumping and chirping in the forest.
"It's really a blessing place for immortals." Yu Qingling said, but she didn't notice Fang Chang, so she said, "But where is Mr. Fang?"
Liu Yuande said, "I didn't see it either. Let's go directly to the direction of the nameless palace."
So the two walked forward, passed the winding wooden boardwalk in the pond, and walked to the front of the hall. The floor was paved with bricks and stones, and the sweeping was very clean. When the breeze blew, the surrounding trees were rustling.
I saw a man in white walking around from behind the hall, carrying a jar in his hand.
It was Fang Chang, who smiled and said to Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling:
"You're here. I went to the back mountain to get a jar of wine. It was the sorghum wine I brewed by myself. It was hidden in the hole in the back. Now it's gone, and the smell is just right. Are you tired from afar? Let's wash your hands in the stream next to you, and then we'll have lunch here together. The conditions on the cliff are simple, so don't bother you."
After saying that, Fang Chang pointed to the big stone table in front of him, and then the two of them realized that the stone table was filled with food.
Thinking of the wine jar in Mr. Fang's hand, Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling immediately knew that Mr. Fang had known the news that they were coming.
They secretly sighed that Mr. Fang is really a true immortal, and his ability to know the truth is really magical.
Then Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling bowed slightly to Fang Chang, and handed over the gift they brought, which were several books of strange ambitions. Fang Chang took it with one hand, looked at it, and said happily:
"Yes, I haven't seen it."
The two of them went to the stream to wash their hands as they said, and sat on the stone table.
There are a wide variety of delicacies in the bowls and dishes on the table, many of which are rare mountain treasures in the world. There are also some home-cooked beans, steamed bacon, peanuts, minced meat, tofu, etc., as well as several kinds of meat that are hard to name. The cooking methods are varied, steamed, stewed and fried, and they smell fragrant and look colorful and attractive.
At this time, Fang Chang was already sitting in the main seat and pouring wine into two glass cups.
Liu Yuande noticed that there were vertical and horizontal lines on the stone table, as if it was a chessboard. I don’t know who Mr. Fang would play chess with here?
After walking a lot of mountain roads and climbing the plank road for a long time, the two of them were really hungry.
They were very familiar with Fang Chang, but they were not too polite, so they picked up their chopsticks and ate.
When they were in the mouth of the delicacy, they were immediately startled by the delicious food, which made them even more hungry. Then they elegantly accelerated their eating speed. The staple food was corn and a steamed potato. Fang Chang told them that these were all grown and harvested on the cliff. Similarly, the sorghum that brewed wine was also produced on the cliff.
He traveled all year round and occupied the military, and Yu Qingling and Liu Yuande had a good alcohol content, so the three of them killed a jar. They praised the taste of the wine, but Fang Chang did not tell them that this was because the cave in the back mountain was full of spiritual power, and the taste of the wine was greatly improved by the years of soaking it, but they kept adding wine to the two of them.
When he was slightly drunk, Fang Chang asked the two of them:
"What's going on at the foot of the mountain? Why do you have time to come here?"
Fang Chang just sensed in advance that they would come, but did not really go to divine why they came. Now seeing the two of them looking relaxed and lively, and they didn't look like they were having trouble at all, they knew that they might not be tired of their official positions, so they asked directly.
